    I think my cat may have a broken tail...

    Mistletoe is now 10 yrs old but as a kitten he injured his tail. We did end up having to have part of the tail amputated. To this day he does not like his tail to be touched. My husband says he's just embarassed because his tail is so short.

    ice and salt

    My kitties are strictly inside kitties so my only concern is salt thet might get tracked in (especially when I am not home because my kids won't be so quick to clean it up) They think I worry too much about what could happen to the cats. They are my babies though and I don't want tham to be...

    Crystals in urine

    My kitty also suffers from crystals. She was put on Hill's prescription food but it altered her ph too much and then a different kind of crystals started to form. My vet then switched her to Science Diet and so far so good. My vet preferred that she be on the indoor formula but she refused to...

    ice and salt

    My husband wants to put down salt to help melt the ice that is frozen solid on our front porch. I am concerned about the salt being tracked in and harming my kitties. Will it hurt them if they should pick any up on there paws and then lick them while grooming?

    What Kind of Canned Food???

    I feed the babies Nutro Maxcat Kitten Ocean Fish and Chicken and Liver. The big kitties split a can of Nutro adult ocean fish and rice or shrimp and salmon. I was ready to order that Chicken Soup For the Soul food for them to try, but my vet advised against it. She wants me to stick with "the...

    jack's vaccination lump

    Well, we went to the vet and it's not a cyst. She doesn't think it's a tumor either. She wants to watch it for another month and if it's still there she definately wants it removed. She reccomended warm compresses in the mean time, and of course if it should get bigger she wants to take it...

    jack's vaccination lump

    I am leaving in a few minutes to take Jack in to have his lump checked out. Please send your prayers, vibes, or whatever you've got our way. I talked to the vet this morning and she is thinking it will probably turn out to be something simple, but over the last few weeks I've read a lot about...

    4 cats-smelly house.

    No, I can't smell any kind of scent at all once it's in the box. It's certainly nothing like some of the crazy perfumed ones, like fresh step, a brand I attempted to use in the past. To me it has little, if any odor at all.

    So what wet food do you feed your cat?

    The kittens are on Nutro (kitten) dry in the morning and Nutro (kitten)wet at dinner time. They act like the wet is some kind of "kitty crack" I can hardly get it opened without hem climbing up my legs to try to grab the can. I have just recently tried to start the big kitties on we and am...

    Can cats poop at will?

    2 of mine rarely even wait for the litter to be poured in. 1 jumps in as soon as the fresh litter hits the box. the other 3 could care less.....they are too lazy to get up.

    They can be gone in a second

    Out of the six that I have luckily I only have 2 that try to venture out. We are very careful about taking "kitty inventory" before an outside door is opened but we have had problems with some of the kids' friends not paying attention. Mistletoe has never gotten any further then the driveway...

    Kittie Sqeaks

    I have one kitty that squeeks, one that chirps, one that is almost always silent, one that yowls, one that just meows, and one very crabby kitty that growls most of the time when anyone tries to pick her up or pet her.

    4 cats-smelly house.

    I have 6 cats and we don't have an odor problem at all. I too, use homemade top entry boxes (aka rubbermaid tote with a hole cut in the lid). The only brand of liiter that I like is Tidy Cat.....multible cat immediate odor control. I have tried the continuous odor control formula but found...
